      I mean, i was born in 97 and that's all we did. Play outside, roam the small town, fishing swimming, hunting etc. You were just outside with your friends growing up. Tough for kids now to have thoe experiences, due to the popularity of online gaming and internet use in general. Sad. I feel like we had a major split in "normal" childhood around 2005 or so, as they are the first generation growing up with this technology in their hands from the day they can remember, and let it dominate and control their lives far more than past generations had to deal with. I sound like some baby boomer but that's just how I feel.

    I don't know if anyone else explained this yet, but I saw you looking it up on your phone when Babe Ruth asks if he can keep the Henry Aaron card in Benny's dream. Henry "Hank" Aaron played in the MLB from 1954 to 1976, and he is best known for breaking Babe Ruth's MLB record for Career Home Runs. He hit 755 HRs in his career and held the record until Barry Bonds broke it in 2007.

    I'm 68 years old and this movie pretty accurately describes my life as a kid, with the embellishment lenses we would have looked through.
    I can remember when every town had a vacant lot or field where all of the kids played baseball.
    Even as an adult coaching baseball when I drafted a team I went to the sandlot and picked the kids I saw out there playing. They were always the best players in town because they were out there playing all day while other kids were playing video games in their bedrooms.

    5:24 The streets in America often don't count by ones. You usually have odds on one side and evens on the other. The numbers often jump forward to the next 100s place when you pass a crossroad into another block. You can also have houses right next to each other jumping 4, 6, 8 or 10 places. If you're on a rural road with lots of space in between they may jump up by a lot. I think it's in case they ever want to subdivide the lots they can assign numbers in between without reindexing or using decimals.

    • @lazerbungalow
      @lazerbungalow 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

      To be more specific, the first two numbers are probably the street number. Not that it's necessarily named 15th street, but it would be 15th street. The 56 means it's 56 yards from the top of the street.

    The addresses work differently in America, 1556 doesn't mean that there's that many houses on the street, the farther away you get from the middle of a town, the higher the numbers go up, so that would be a mile and a half from the center of town since the address is 1556

    The thing I taught my daughter (and a couple of her friends) is that throwing isn't that hard - just step and point the other foot (the one opposite the throwing hand) where you want the ball to go. Boom, get a few practice reps in, you're a natural. As with pretty much any sport, it starts with the legs. Get that, the rest will follow.

    Here proof For an 11-year-old, you really couldn't ask for a better movie to be in. It was like summer camp." Incidentally, the coach on set taught Guiry how not to play ball, because in reality he was far more athletic than Smalls. "They coached me a lot on how to look like I didn't know how to throw," he said."I know my Little League coach was pretty upset when he saw the movie."

    I'm sure you know by now but when they showed babe ruth in the kids room, the card he picked up and said "henry Aaron, idk why but can i take this kid?". Hank Aaron was the one to go on to break Ruth's homerun record. It was later broken again by bonds but since he cheated, Aaron will always be the true record holder. He's a Braves legend and was a legendary human being as well.

    Nice, this is definitely a classic for most kids around here, and that love tends to stick around as you grow up despite being a kid's movie. I'm not sure how it'd hit seeing it for the first time as an adult and without as much nostalgia, but I'm glad ya'll enjoyed it!

    We used to play ball in a field. Home plate was an electrical cover, and 1st, 2nd & 3rd were whatever we brought with us or could find. We never had a full team, and the age range was diverse. It was more like batting practice than anything, but we had fun. After, we would go swimming or look at Playboys in the tree fort. On weekends we'd have sleepovers and play video games until late. I guess life was kinda like the Sandlot now that I think about it...

    You're killing me smalls being a slightly improved line is amazing... Also guys it's the only sandlot that matters every other sandlot movie that came afterwards was garbage lol but it was just the way they directed it and wrote this movie it was such a hit soon after it came out.. also a fun fact majority of these kids never really played baseball in the real life or understood the game lol besides Benny he was an All-Star / high School baseball player he was really good the pitcher knew a little bit and can't forget about him he was playing baseball in leagues before the filming of this movie but the rest of the other guys I guess they weren't familiar with baseball or very athletic

  • @Jon_FM

    Growing up in the 70s my friends and I did find a local park that we played baseball in all summer pretty much like that, group of the same kids everyone took turns batting. Most remembered by me because on two occasions my older brothers got involved. One hit the ball so hard it went the full length of the park, across the road and hit the fence which freaked us all out and we ran away.
    The second major memory was me pitching against my other older brother and hit the ball and it went straight at my head knocking me unconscious. I woke up in his arms about a block away from home.
    In the winter we would play road hockey in a back alley, we always had a problem where the tennis ball we used would go under the neighbour's fence. None of us knew them so we were always trying to be sneaky to get it back before getting caught... at the same time our "sneaky" was then jumping on their adult bench swing and rocking back and forth almost every time. I legitimately wonder if they knew all along but just let us get away with it.
    For me this movie hits all those points so well.
    So this movie always kind of fit.

    This so much reminds me of my youth in the late 50's and 60's. No internet, very little TV, and the best times with the best friends imaginable. Summer days were spent outside on our bikes or playing baseball in any sandlot or empty field we could find. One of my all-time favorite movies, especially when I saw it for the first time with my sons and was able to relate to them what growing up in my era was like. They both played Little League baseball and I coached for 5 years. Best times ever are times spent on a baseball field, regardless of age! “At some point in your childhood, you and your friends went outside to play together for the last time and nobody knew it. ”“At some point in your childhood, you and your friends went outside to play together for the last time and nobody knew it”

    This was genuinely one of my favorite movies when growing up. The juxtaposition of how kids create monsters and urban legends and an actual future legend forming in Benny, with all the random childhood things in between, is so perfect. This movie perfectly captures the lazy summer days I'd spend riding around the neighborhood with my friends. And, fun fact, the guy who plays older Benny in the baseball game in the end is actually the older brother of Mike Vitar, the kid who played young Benny.

His scene with Wendy in the pool was always my favorite 😂 And I’ve always wanted P.F. Flyers like Benny The Jet Rodriguez had. To this day people in America say “You’re killin’ me Smalls” and everyone knows exactly what they’re referencing. It’s truly a timeless film. FOREVER, FOREVER! lol

    Baseball, football, basketball, kickball, warball, and occasionally you’d end up at the riverbank swimming. This was set in the 60’s but in the 70’s and 80’s a game was being played somewhere. A pop and a snickers…simple times were the best times.
